Congratulations to Hydro-Québec for the official power ON of the Champlain Hudson Power Express (CHPE)! The Port of Albany-Rensselaer has been a supply chain logistics partner to the project as the entirety of the cable necessary for the project was handled through the Port. The cables, manufactured in Sweden, were shipped directly to the Port, where the crew expended more than 11,750 longshore hours and handled more than 340 miles of cable.

It was great to hear progress insights on this phenomenal project from Kyle Collins, Director of Business Development at Hydro-Québec Energy Services at the Port’s recent Maritime Summit - https://www.portofalbany.us/maritime-summit-2026

Happy National Maritime Day! Did you know that National Maritime Day is a United States federal observance celebrated annually on May 22? It recognizes the maritime industry, honors the contributions of the American Merchant Marine, and celebrates the historical impact of the S.S. Savannah, which completed the first successful transoceanic voyage under steam power in 1819.
